When Lord Solang heard this, his eyes were dull and his brows were raised.
A heavy sigh.
Yan Qi stared at Suo Lang closely: "This is equivalent to a helpless person with gold and silver jewelry in his pocket. Guess, can he hold on? Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"In fact, not only was this helpless young man unable to keep the treasure, but he would also suffer misfortune. With good luck, he was beaten up and the treasure was robbed."
"If you encounter a cruel person, you can cut him with a knife and wipe his neck, and he will die immediately."
When Suo Lang heard this, his legs trembled.
Yan Qidao: "I can say this, Xiye Kingdom is this young man who has no power to tie a chicken, and the water resources and iron ore in Weishan Mountain are the gold and silver treasures."
"In ordinary times, I was robbed by the countries in the Western Regions. They made small fights and beat the Xiye Kingdom black and blue, and robbed some treasures."
"Princess Wuyou is like a ruthless robber. She holds a knife and wants to wipe Xiye Kingdom's neck and snatch away all the treasures. Is my metaphor correct?"
Suo Lang laughed at himself: "Master Yan's words are true. Although it sounds contemptuous of me, to put it bluntly, this is indeed a cruel portrayal of what Xiye Kingdom is facing."
Yan Qidao: "So, it's still the same sentence. The common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of having a jade! Xiye Kingdom is just a scholar who has no power to restrain a chicken. It is impossible to control the water resources and iron mines of Weishan Mountain. . The only way is to separate the Weishan water resources and iron ore from Xiye Kingdom."
When Suo Lang heard this, he trembled in shock: "Separate Weishan's water resources and iron ore from Xiye Kingdom? This..."
Yan Qi smiled slightly: "Why, you can't bear to part with it?"
Suo Lang smiled awkwardly, hiding the nervousness deep in his heart: "I really can't bear to part with it. After all, this is Xiye's unique resource."
Yan Qi laughed loudly: "It's true that I can't let it go. I wouldn't be able to let it go either. Why should I give my treasure to others? Am I stupid or a tiger?"
Suo Lang couldn't help laughing when he heard what Yan Qi said was funny.
Although, the joke has a sad connotation.
Yan Qidao: "One word of reluctance is endless sadness. However, Lord Suolang, please study it carefully. If you are willing to give up, you will get something if you give up. If you don't give up, how can you gain anything?"
Suo Lang was startled: "Master Yan, what does this sentence mean?"
Yan Qi stared closely at Suo Lang's nervous eyes: "In a word, the majestic mountains and rivers are full of resources."
The Yuanhe Iron Mine is only a disaster for the Xiye Kingdom, without any benefit. Instead of keeping it in the hands and causing disaster, it is better to give it to the lucky people in exchange for the peace and prosperity of the Xiye Kingdom. "
Suo Lang frowned: "Who does Mr. Yan want me to give the Weishan water resources and iron ore to? Who is the blessed person?"
Yan Qiyan said firmly: "Give it to Dahua!"
"Ah? Dahua!"
Suo Lang was shocked: "Master Yan, it turns out you are planning on me! Do you want to plunder Xiye Kingdom too?"
Yan Qi smiled disdainfully: "If I want to plunder Xiye Kingdom, can Lord Suolang still drink with me?"
"this……"
Yan Qi's words left Suo Lang speechless.
yes.
If Dahua really wants to take action against the Xiye Kingdom, and the Xiye Kingdom will be destroyed in a devastating manner, how can there be any possibility of resistance?
Yan Qidao: "To put it bluntly, Lord Suolang is blinded by a leaf and cannot see Mount Tai."
"Weishan's water resources and Xiye's iron ore are just drizzle in Dahua's eyes."
"The land of Dahua is vast and rich in resources. It is a blessed land. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of rivers and lakes with richer water resources than Weishan Mountain."
"As for mines, Dahua has gold, silver, copper, and aluminum mines. As for iron ore, it is considered a treasure in the Western Region, but in Dahua, what is iron ore? It's just a mountain."
"Master Suolang, if I say it so bluntly, do you still think Dahua wants to rob Xiye Kingdom?"
"In a word, Dahua is like a cornucopia. A arrogant local tycoon will not look down on a little golden bean like Xiye. As for the meager resources of Xiye Kingdom, he will not pay attention at all."
Suo Lang was dumbfounded.
He felt ashamed for sitting in a well and looking at the sky.
"Lord Yan, listening to a lecture is worth ten years of reading! I am just a frog sitting in a well and looking at the sky, so I use myself to save others. How can the vast country of Xiye take this iron ore and water resources in their eyes?"
"Hey, it's my short-sightedness that blinds me. I can't see the mountain."
After being scolded so arrogantly by Yan Qi, Suo Lang felt relieved.
Suo Lang asked Yan Qi: "Since Lord Yan doesn't take Xiye's small resources in his eyes, why do he still ask for Xiye's iron mine and Weishan's water resources?"
Yan Qidao: "I need to make a sincere gesture. In everything, I need to show my attitude."
So
Lang said: "Master Yan, please give me detailed instructions."
Yan Qidao: "Let me ask, is Dahua my world?"
Suo Lang shook his head: "Of course not, Dahua belongs to all Dahua people."
"well said!"
Yan Qidao: "In the same way, Xiye Kingdom belongs to Xiye people, not to Dahua. Normally, we make friends with each other and give gifts. That is normal. But, what authority do I have to instruct Dahua's soldiers to sacrifice their lives? What about protecting Xiye Kingdom far away in the west? Can you give me a reason? A reason that will convince everyone?"
"this……"
When Suo Lang heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head: "There seems to be no reason."
Yan Qidao: "As for the reason, there is indeed one, but it is a very bad reason."
Solan frowned: "A very bad reason?"
Yan Qi smiled helplessly: "This time, for Princess Sophie, I sent troops to the Western Region to calm the chaos in Xiye. Who doesn't know the relationship between Princess Sophie and me?"
"If I want to station troops in Xiye for a long time, everyone will say that Yan Qi loves Wujiwu and went to station in Xiye because he likes Princess Sophie."
"Lord Suolang, think about it, does this count as a public weapon for private use?"
Suo Lang was startled: "That's right, it's just a public weapon for private use!"
Yan Qidao: "Tell me, what will the emperor think? The emperor gave me military power to quell the chaos and to protect the people of Dahua. However, I sent the army to Xiye Kingdom to protect Xiye The safety of the country, if you think this is the case, how will the emperor be suspicious of me?"
"The Lord Suolang is also the Lord of a country. If the general sends troops to protect other countries, will he behead him in anger?"
Suo Lang felt ashamed: "Master Yan, I was negligent."
Yan Qidao: "What Lord Suolang is even more negligent about is that I don't cover the sky with one hand, I am also the enemy. Who is it? Of course it is the ruthless Eighth King."
"If I send troops to the West Night Kingdom, will the eight kings sue me in the court? Maybe, I will get out of the temple immediately."
"If I get out of the temple, of course the troops stationed in Xiye Kingdom will be withdrawn. How can we continue?"
"I have said so much, does Lord Suolang understand my difficulties?"
Suo Lang suddenly realized: "Master Yan, I am old and confused. I don't know the difficulties Master Yan is in Dahua. I am too rude. Master Yan, please forgive me. Please forgive me."
